Joe Kapp also went on to an acting career.......most notably the movie The Longest Yard (original with Burt Reynolds, not the newer Adam Sandler version).

He did the football QB action scenes for Burt Reynolds part.......and in the movie, his throwing style is unmistakeable.

Joe Kapp was also the coach of the University of California when they scored the miraculous last play touchdown.

Too bad the Riders failed to score. They came awfully close though.
